The first post of these said it one one of the first stories written. That should place it another 10 years further back than the early 2000's. It's a shame the network had such a problem with George Liqour. We missed out on some great cartoon acting as well as some great voice performances from Mike Pataki.

This latest series of layouts shows there was still a great deal of work to do joining up all these poses. Having the key poses must have made it easier to guide the animation, but it looks like it would take more than just some inbetweening. I'd like to see how that would have turned out if Bob Jaques had been involved.

Ah, that makes more sense. I thought there was something about them that looked more recent, but I got thrown off by the comments on the storyboards from Monday's post, and the "Hippie ladies" that rejected them seemed like it was from the 'nick run. Maybe just those storyboards were from that era?

Stimpy in particular looks a bit more like the APC period, but I should have known from Ren's smaller ears and no tail that it wasn't '91. It's hard to hide improved skills as well.

To go back to your first jobs in cartoons, what were the advertisements like? I am pretty sure offering to have your dreams destroyed wouldn't get many takers for the Filmation cartoons. How did they advertise they wanted cartoons? Did they bait with good cartoons?
